    The service was impeccable. Faye is so sweet and helpful. They have a beautiful display of stylish eyeglasses. I would recommend coming here based on selection and customer service alone. What better than to be greeted with an authentic smile?

    Titanium sunglasses

    I came here after my sunglasses were stolen, and the staff was very helpful in recommending a new pair. They were friendly and gave me very personalized recommendations.

    I'm an aging guy, on a limited budget, who went from decades of scraping by with non-prescription…read morereaders to finally accepting that I needed four pairs of specialized prescription glasses--for reading, for sitting in front of computers for hours on end, and for distance both indoors and outdoors (sunglasses). After resisting wearing glasses for so long, and, let's face it, being a little vain, I wasn't a good candidate for progressives despite the practical and economic considerations. Trying to wrap my head around an expanding universe of frames and lenses in every shape and price range after being so resistant for so long was overwhelming. I'd gone to all the usual suspect shops in Old Town Pasadena, where parking is always a challenge, as is finding a knowledgeable and caring employee working on an hourly wage, without coming close to making a purchase. One day I was driving down Colorado Boulevard, stopped at a light, when I spied Brighter Optical and its spacious, free parking lot. I'd never heard of the shop, but thought why not, I might as well give it a shot. I was warmly greeted by owner Raymond Yu himself. I immediately felt comfortable in his small but well-stocked shop. Then I was immersed in a lengthy consultation with someone who had unlimited patience for my long list of questions, who spoke in soothing tones that put me even more at ease. It was so much better talking to an owner with a lifetime of experience and the ability to negotiate multiple purchases than an hourly employee with no real stake in the outcome. Not only did Raymond know everything there was to know about frames and lenses, he knew how to break it all down into easily digestible concepts that I could grasp even though English is just one of the languages he speaks fluently. Better yet, he filtered all that knowledge into personalized recommendations which rang so true I had no qualms about pulling the trigger on the sale. When the dust settled, Brighter Optical had a customer for life, while I came away with four pairs of flattering glasses for every purpose that exceeded the most fervent hope I had for my budget--and a new friend.

    Excellent service and a wonderful selection of frames. The team was knowledgeable, attentive, and…read moremade sure I found glasses that suited me perfectly. A truly pleasant experience from start to finish.

    I'm a longtime JINS customer, and when I needed to update my prescription, I decided to get my eye…read moreexam done through JINS this time. Their technician, Anthony was the one who helped conduct my exam. He was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and approachable. Unlike other places where I've had my eyes checked, I felt like JINS did a really thorough job of testing not only my vision, but also my depth perception, color deficiency, and peripheral vision. The last time I had my eyes checked at a different optometry place, I had to wait for over an hour even though I showed up on time. As I waited around, no one came to check in on me or apologize for the long wait. When it was finally my turn, my test was no longer than 5 minutes and I was told my vision hadn't changed. At JINS, I showed up on time and they took me in at the exact time my appointment was scheduled. I shared that I was uncomfortable with the puff-of-air test, but thank god they didn't have that machine and Anthony was able to measure my eye pressure using a different method. I also shared that I get nervous with things being so close to my eyes/face, so Anthony walked me through everything he was doing which helped ease my nerves. Keep in mind that the actual vision test was done through telemedicine, so the doctor wasn't physically on site. I was a little skeptical at first, but the Zoom call was high quality and I could hear the doctor clearly. It was so cool that she was able to conduct the exam remotely. She took the time to show me the pictures they took of my eyes and explain what I was looking at and why my eyes were healthy. It really is a comprehensive exam like they say it is! The whole process was surprisingly seamless and convenient, and I never felt like the telemedicine aspect took away from the quality of the exam. Afterwards, I asked Kelsey to help me pick out a new pair of glasses. She's helped style me in the past, and I've always been really happy with the frames she picks out for me. She was wearing these super cool Barbie glasses with rose pink lenses. She's such a fashion icon, so of course I always ask her to style me! She asked me how things were going, and I told her about how I couldn't work the last two days because of a migraine. She told me that she's spoken with customers who have had issues with migraines before and how wearing pink-tinted lenses helps with it. She let me try on pink demo lenses and they really did feel so much more comfortable to look through. I normally wear transition glasses because my eyes are so sensitive to light, and now I feel like I have an option to wear indoors as well for when my eyes feel strained! So now I needed help finding a pair of glasses that would also look good with pink lenses. She remembered that I'm a huge anime fan and she pulled out these really dope Naruto frames from the back and I was like yes these are the ones!! Anthony helped me out at checkout and the process was so seamless. I do have to wait 2-3 weeks for my pink glasses to come in but that time goes by fast and they text you when it's ready for pickup or shipping. And of course I don't want to forget the other service specialists that have helped me in the past. They're always so friendly and honest about what you actually need. I never feel like they're trying to upsell me or push products just to make a sale. Even though they're out of network for insurance, their glasses are incredibly affordable and I never feel like I'm breaking the bank trying to get a pair of glasses. They remember me from the last few times I came in to try on their collaboration glasses, and that always makes me feel welcomed and special. I actually wrote a review when I got my first pair of Snoopy glasses from JINS, and I've been back a few times since then. I want to highlight how consistent the staff and service is. The customer service is always great, and the staff genuinely makes the whole getting glasses experience enjoyable. If you have a pair of JINS glasses, they offer free adjustments, cleanings, and nose pad replacements. They're always dropping new styles and the glasses are all so lightweight and fashionable. I hated wearing glasses in the past, but now they're a staple in my closet that also allows me to see! JINS is the GOAT!

    After they told me they were missing one of my measurements, I drove back to the store on another…read moreFriday after work to have it taken. I live an hour and a half away, so this wasn't a quick trip. During my second visit, another employee took my measurements and told me everything was good. When I got my glasses in the mail, I realized they had never recorded the measurement I came back to give them. It finally made sense why Kim had texted me after my second visit saying I needed to come back, even though I had already been there. Because that measurement was never entered correctly, my glasses were made wrong. Everything was blurry, and wearing them made me dizzy. I even messaged Kim to ask if the measurement on my receipt was correct, and she told me it was. It wasn't. So I had to make a third trip back to the store. Valerie made the situation even more frustrating. She changed the measurement right in front of me but kept saying it had been correct the whole time. Then she pulled up my old measurements from the Del Amo location, where I had bought the exact same glasses before, crossed out the incorrect number on my receipt, and tried to print me a new one with the corrected measurements like that was supposed to fix everything. It didn't change the fact that I had already made three extra trips because of mistakes on their end. I understand that mistakes happen, but the lack of communication between employees, the repeated errors, and the way everything was handled made this a really disappointing experience.
